this has been saved as a draft for a month now.
On May 2nd Mila turned 6 months. How did that happen so fast? Her babyhood is just flying by. She's already eating baby food now, sitting up okay (toppling over a lot), tries soooooo hard to scoot or crawl but she isn't there yet, loves reaching, grasping, eating, chewing, gnawing on things. LOVES watching Triett - he makes her smile more than anyone, even me, dear 'ole mom. He is such a great big brother to her. So, so sweet and loving. He has his moments - one night he was really rowdy and was marching too close to her and then stuck his FOOT on her FACE. I was so mad! She, of course, laughed through it all but I did not want him to think that was okay. I promptly put him in time out and I think he got the message.
We just had her 6 month appt - she is 26.5 inches and 16 pounds and something ounces - I can't remember exactly. She did great at the doctor - smiled for the nurses, and just cried out right after she got poked, but by the time she was in my arms again she was back to smiling at the nurse, lol. Not sure how we got so lucky with our second baby. I guess they are all this easy going and go-with-the-flow when they have to keep up with a toddler! She is such a great sleeper now, too. I had to work at it for 4 months, but she goes to sleep on her own and sleeps solid...and amazingly she will go to sleep almost anywhere for her bedtime. She is such a joy. I am always telling Ted that I hope she knows how much she's loved, our sweet girl. I can't wait to pick out her firt bathing suit, it's fun shopping for a girl for a change. :)
